Multidisciplinary research at the Chemistry: Biology interface has expanded so rapidly in the past few decades that such training is now crucial for the development of the next generation of chemists and biologists. The objective of the proposed training program is to train predoctoral graduate students in the Chemistry and Biochemistry/Biophysics departments at Texas A7883892 University in research at the Chemistry: Biology Interface (CBI). Since its inception in 1994, this NIH-sponsored program has played a major role in the successful training of our graduate students in the molecular life sciences. The program currently involves 21 faculty members, with highly diverse research interests including molecular enzymology, macromolecular interactions, organic and inorganic synthesis, bioanalysis, metabolism, structure/function relationships, and computational mechanistic studies. Students in the CBI program choose one of these trainers as their primary research advisor, and enroll in a core group of required courses. CBI students enroll in a weekly journal club in which research topics from these areas are discussed. They also enroll in a class on the Ethical conduct of research. The CBI program sponsors 2 symposia annually in which trainees present their research results. Well-known external speakers are also invited as part of the training program. Towards the end of this 2-year program, students apply to attend a summer workshop course at an external location in which classroom and laboratory instruction are combined in an intense scientific setting. Students are also encouraged to attend a scientific conference annually.

化学的多学科研究：生物学界面 在过去的几十年中，已经迅速扩展，以至于这种培训对于发展至关重要 下一代化学家和生物学家。拟议培训计划的目的是 在化学和生物化学/生物物理学部门的培训培训专业研究生 德克萨斯A7883892化学研究大学：生物学接口（CBI）。自1994年成立以来 这项由NIH赞助的计划在我们的研究生的成功培训中发挥了重要作用 在分子生命科学中。该计划目前涉及21名教职员工，高度多样 研究兴趣包括分子酶学，大分子相互作用，有机和无机 合成，生物分析，代谢，结构/功能关系和计算机械 研究。 CBI计划中的学生选择其中一名教练作为其主要研究顾问， 并注册一组所需课程。 CBI学生参加了每周的期刊俱乐部 讨论了这些领域的研究主题。他们还参加了有关道德行为的课程 研究。 CBI计划每年赞助2次座谈会，学员在其中提出研究 结果。还邀请了著名的外部演讲者作为培训计划的一部分。走向 这项为期两年计划的结束，学生申请参加外部位置的夏季研讨会课程 其中将教室和实验室教学结合在强烈的科学环境中。学生是 还鼓励每年参加科学会议。
